Other Ceremonies.
There are so many moments that we can elevate together.
Being able to help you celebrate life’s most profound moments brings me joy. My goal is that your non-religious ceremony reflects who you are, how you inhabit the world, and honours the depth and complexity of your relationships. I’ll work with you to find the words and sentiments that resonate most, while offering you options of non-religious rituals that might elevate and enrich your experience. I want to create an environment in which you can be relaxed and present, where you can focus on what you’re celebrating and make space for authentic emotions.
I have a tremendous amount of experience in performance, writing, and co-ordinating, with my background being in the creative arts. Life has brought me to Bayfield, Ontario where I run a small-scale lavender farm that offers a seasonal place of peace to visitors with the intention being to unplug, and pay attention to the surroundings, offering oneself a space to mentally unwind. I have found a lot of peace through my Officiant Practice and study with Humanist Canada. To find out a bit more about what else I do, please check out Bayfield Lavender Farm.
